everything
in these dry thin

Every season leaves a promise of the one to come. This is lovely.

It is always a TRUE promise- better weather WILL come around! We had a small dose this afternoon- short lived but AMAZING!

So much golden loveliness on a sunny winter's day.... a day closer to May.
I love the promise. Thanks, Steven.
